Installation

1.Adjust the switches as shown in Figure G.

Turn on the power and press the "adjusting key"

button. When the "Raid 1" on the front panel

is lit, Raid 1 Mode is active and complete.

2. The rebuilding period:

When you use Raid 1 for the first time, please 

format the two hard disks in advance.

Estimated rebuild time is around 1 hour for every

100GB. When it is rebuilding, the HDD1/ HDD2

lights will flash. When the HDD1/HDD2 lights 

become solid and stop flashing, this will indicates

rebuilding of the hard drive is complete.

1. When you set up Raid 1 Mode, we suggest  you 
    use two hard disks of the same brand and capacity.
2. The default setting for first time use is set to copy a 
     mirror image of hard drive1 to hard drive 2. 
    (The first hard drive is behind the USB/eSATA port)
3. If RAID 1 is already set and running, any new hard drive 
     that is inserted/installed will be rebuilt to the already 
     installed hard drive. 
4. When changing to a new hard drive, rebuilding time
     is necessary.
5. When Raid 1 is set, HDD/HDD2 should both flash. 
     However if only one is lit while the other is off, this might 
     mean the other hard drive may not be functioning or 
     connected properly.
6. When the hard drive are finished rebuilding, the light of 
     the copied hard drive will flash.
7. If there is any pre-existing data on the copied hard drive, 
     the previous data will be overwritten by the information
     from the hard drive that is being mirrored.
